Seven hundred and ninetieth chapters decision (two in one)(1/2)
Qiu Mingshan's words really made Lin Yanchao very embarrassed. If he was not good at doing this, then as a local official, he was exposed to the city and fleeing, which was to be ruined, and he was praised all over the world, and eventually he would become slandered all over the world.
Besides, paper cannot contain the fire, and the truth will come out sooner or later.
But Lin Yanchao thought about it again and said that he was not sure of staying in the city under this crisis. This is no better than "death advice" to the emperor at that time. At that time, Lin Yanchao arranged various back-up moves. Although he might not be able to protect his official position, he could at least protect himself from his death.
If it is a true "death advice", how many people have the courage to be too irresistible to Hai Rui!
But now this situation will destroy the city. In such a situation, no one can survive. Qiu Mingshan is right. Even if he doesn't have to do it for himself, he should think about his family and those who follow him.
Qiu Mingshan urged: "Dongweng, make a decision early, otherwise you will not be able to leave the city gate if you are late."
Thinking of this, Lin Yanchao said to Qiu Mingshan: "Even if I stay, I am a scholar, but I am still powerless to turn things around."
Qiu Mingshan was overjoyed when he heard this, saying, "Dongweng knows the current affairs as a hero, just think it through."
Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "Thank you, Mr. Qiu, for your advice, what are your good plans now?"
Qiu Mingshan said: "Dongweng, the guards of the West Gate are relatives of our clan, and we can get the joints. We leave the city from here, go to Ningling County, and then go to Kaifeng to ask Futai for help."
Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "Then you go and do it. I will meet you at Ximen for a while."
Qiu Mingshan nodded and left quickly.
Lin Yanchao immediately returned to Tongzhi's house.
There is a door in the second hall and the back house. This door is strictly controlled and cannot be accessed easily.
Lin Yanchao walked to the door of the house, sweating unconsciously on his forehead.
Several of the people guarding the back house all smiled and said, "I have met the master of the second mansion."
Lin Yanchao smiled, but he didn't rush to enter the door, stood still and said, "By the way, haven't you been back for the festival?"
When the disciple saw a mansion condescending to talk to him, he smiled slightly and said, "The villain does not have such a good fortune. I will be on the night tonight and serve as a job for the men."
"That's so hard, come and give up the wine later."
The disciple also knew that Lin Yanchao was a polite word, but he still said happily: "The villain thanked the master of the second mansion."
Lin Yanchao nodded and returned to the house.
At this time, the house was busy cleaning and cooking. Lin Qianqian saw Lin Yanchao return to the house and smiled and said, "Mr., can you go home soon today? Our family of three have a good holiday."
Seeing Lin Qianqian's smile on her face and Xiao Yanchao babbling in her nurse's arms.
Lin Yanchao gritted his teeth and said, "Call everyone in the house."
Lin Qianqian couldn't help but say, "What's the matter with you, Master?"
"Don't ask quickly."
Wait for the people in the house to gather together.
Lin Yanchao defeated the elite official army, and only the old, weak and remnants were left in the palace. The hungry people outside the city told everyone that they were full of resentment towards the prefect.
Lin Yanchao said it in two or three simple sentences, and the people in the mansion were shocked.
Life is at stake. At this time, I heard that the bandits were about to siege the city, and everyone was so scared that their bodies trembled all over.
Lin Qianqian said: "My husband, how do you decide? If you want to leave the city, I will leave the city with you. If you want to leave our family of three, you will be together and not separate."
Lin Yanchao said to Lin Qianqian: "How can I keep you, mother and son in the city?"
Lin Qianqian said firmly: "My husband, let's go together, let's stay together."
Lin Yanchao sighed: "At present, the best fighting troops in the city are defeated, the generals are not aware of life and death, and the thieves are very powerful, so the city will definitely not be able to be protected. At this moment, we can only leave the city immediately, and if we are late, our lives will not be protected. Don't clean up everything, get on the carriage immediately, so as not to suffer this disaster."
Sun Chengzong and Lin Yanchao and several disciples moved their lips, but they followed Lin Yanchao's head and said nothing.
Seeing that Lin Yanchao was about to leave, Lin Qianqian nodded.
So Zhan Ming went to prepare the carriage, and everyone left immediately as they said.
Chen Jichuan asked, "Do you call the two Jinyiwei officials?"
Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "They are Zhang Jing's confidants. If there is any mistake, I will blame me and take it away together."
Soon, everyone in the house was empty. Lin Yanchao sighed in his heart that he had been a relative official for less than a month before he encountered this situation.
At this time, Chen Jichuan said to Lin Yanchao: "Master, the carriage is ready."
Lin Yanchao nodded and asked, "Has Madam and the others all got on the carriage?"
"Yes, Master"
Lin Yanchao said to Chen Jichuan: "The rioters are near to occupy the city, but we don't rush to drive in the city to avoid suspicion. After leaving the city, even if the horse runs out of the city, we must first rush to Ningling County, and then change horses and then Kaifeng."
"Yes, Master."
Lin Yanchao was about to set off when he heard someone outside the door saying, "Master of the Second Mansion, the Lord of the State Council has something to do, so I will call you to discuss."
After this person said this, Chen Jichuan's face changed drastically.
Lin Yanchao calmly said, "Okay, just report back to the prefect and say that I will come immediately after changing my clothes."
The person who came said yes, then walked away.
Lin Yanchao and Chen Jichuan said: "The mansion has noticed it, so we will get on the carriage immediately."
So the two of them came to the back door of the government office, in front of the carriage, Zhang Wu and Zhao Da, two Jinyiwei, met Lin Yanchao and Chen Jichuan, and the others were all looking at each other.
Lin Yanchao left his post without permission and fled to the city. It was extremely disgraceful and I wonder what the two of them thought.
At this moment, Zhang Wu, Zhao Da knelt down with a thud, kowtowed to Lin Yanchao and said, "Thank you for your life."
Lin Yanchao and Chen Jichuan both breathed a sigh of relief. The few of them said nothing and left from the back door of the mansion.
The carriage drove to the west gate, Yucheng County was northeast of Shangqiu, and Ningling County was west of Shangqiu City. Lin Yanchao, Chen Jichuan, Sun Chengzong, and several disciples sat in the car together.
Everyone was speechless all the way, but from the curtains, they could see that the people on the street were happily setting off firecrackers at the door and pasting peach talismans. The children smiled and clapped their hands to play.
Everyone couldn't bear it when the bandits entered the city for a while and the whole city was poisoned.
Lin Yanchao looked at Sun Chengzong. In history, he was eighty years old and Gaoyang City was broken. He could have left the city, but he insisted on staying in the city. All the clan died under the sword of the Qing soldiers.
But now Sun Chengzong is not Sun Chengzong, who was deeply favored by the emperor for the two generations of imperial teachers decades later. For a scholar, there is no problem with Sun Chengzong leaving at this moment.
While driving, I passed by Yi Mansion.
Lin Yanchao looked at the plaque of the Hou Mansion hanging on the door of the mansion, and his disciple Hou Zhipu was greeting him in front of the door, a distinguished guest.
There were many wealthy slaves around the distinguished guests, and the two were greeting each other.
At this time, when Zhipu turned his head and saw Lin Yanchao in the curtain of the car, he saluted in surprise and joy.
Lin Yanchao nodded in the car, and then the carriage galloped past.
When he arrived at the west gate of the city, Qiu Mingshan immediately came up and said, "Dongweng, the city gate is already closed, but I told him that the city gatekeeper would let us leave the city."
Then Qiu Mingshan made a gesture to the top of the city and the west gate of the city opened.
Because on New Year's Eve, all four gates were closed, and the city gate could not be opened lightly unless they saw the prefect's order. Lin Yanchao saw that Qiu Mingshan could persuade the city gate officials, so he opened the city gate without authorization, and he was indeed capable.
Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "This time, it's really thanks to Mr. Qiu."
Qiu Mingshan was a bit proud. After this incident, he could hold Lin Yanchao's handle in his hand. In the future, Lin Yanchao could not treat him as a confidant.
But he said to himself: "Dongweng, this is my duty."
Lin Yanchao nodded, and suddenly saw three black smoke rushing straight into the sky in the east gate.
Lin Yanchao couldn't help but ask, "What's going on?"
Qiu Mingshan sighed: "It must be that the fire burning smoke in the east of the city warned the city. These three black smokes mean that the fire is urgent."
Lin Yanchao looked at it but saw the archer on the top of the city, and he also looked panicked.
On New Year's Eve, there were not many people stationed, and all the elite troops were lost. Just by placing more than a dozen officers and soldiers on the city, how to defend against the enemy?
But when Qiu Mingshan saw this scene, he looked as if he was really not as expected.
At this time, the boss was on the top of the city and urged Qiu Mingshan: "Mr. Qiu, there are bandits who are pushing the city right now. If you don't leave the city, it will be too late in a while."
Qiu Mingshan said to Lin Yanchao: "Dongweng, please leave quickly, otherwise it will be too late."
After saying that, Qiu Mingshan asked Lin Yanchao to board the carriage.
Lin Yanchao said: "Okay, Mr. Laoqiu has escorted my little sister to Ningling County for me."
Qiu Mingshan was stunned and sneered in his heart. At this time, Lin Yanchao still pretended: "Dongweng, don't delay any more, it will be useless for you to stay."
Lin Yanchao said: "Don't worry, I'm not unsure. It's just that my family is not escorted out of the city, so I can't feel at ease."
Qiu Mingshan thought to himself, how could this be possible? Lin Yanchao didn't leave the city. If he died here, then his favor would be in vain.
"Dongweng, know the times and be a hero. What if you have any, how can you come back from the future? Besides, the Mansion and you have always been in a bad relationship. Even if you do your best to defend the city for him, you will not be grateful."
Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "When I left the city just now, I wanted to leave, but for some reason I remembered something. Someone once asked why Hai Gangfeng was an official?"
"He replied, out of compassion and indignation, he felt compassion when he saw the people hunger, cold, and suffering, and was indignant when he saw the people being bullied. Since he became an official, he had never thought about his future for a day, and only the people and the country were in his heart."
Qiu Mingshan heard this and said, "Dongweng, Hai Rui is so famous, how can he believe his words? How can there be people in the world who forget their own personalities because of business."
Lin Yanchao smiled when he heard this. At this time, he saw the curtain of the car lifting, but Sun Chengzong and Lin Yanchao's several disciples jumped out of the carriage: "Sir, we are willing to stay with you."
